One of my favourite stays surprisingly. We stayed just for the safari but this place was really great. The staff were so nice and you really felt like you got to know them. The food was good with quite a wide range of options. But the best part was simply the location. You are really right out in the middle of the rice fields and the views and peacefulness of the place were so great. Bring a book and just hang out on the grounds watching the fields.

Excellent accomodation! Before our travels, we got contacted by tharindu who helped in providing bus schedules to arrive to the accomodation, as well as arranged a safari with hotel pick up for us. On check-in we were greeted by the very helpful and nice hostess! She woke up early to prepare coffee for us before heading to Yala safari, and also prepared us a small breakfast on our return. Also arranged tuk tuk ride to the nearest bus station on our check out. One of the best accomodations we visited in Sri Lanka, with hot water, spacious bedroom and nice river view from terrace. Would definitely recommend!!

Lovely host family. Upon arrival they were quick to offer us tea and biscuits, setting up a table outside our room. We had a lovely discussion with them in the evening, and they gave us mangos and bananas from their tree :)

The host is just an amazing person (he is doing everything so you feel comfortable), even when we left he still was helping us with different advices. We arranged Safari in Yala from the hotel, and a nice snack and water was prepared for us. The room is in the house of the host, but very clean and comfortable and it was calm. The breakfast was amazing and the host brought us with his tuk tuk for a dinner in the city. We stayed only one night but definitely recommend for others.

Lake Face Cabana is hands down our favorite place in Sri Lanka! We had an unforgettable experience here and we highly recommend this beautiful stay! From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed by the wonderful hosts, who went above and beyond to make our stay unforgettable. They spent time helping us plan our trip, offering invaluable advice about exploring Sri Lanka. Their two daughters and their playful kitten were the sweetest addition, making our stay even more special. The tree house is tucked away in a peaceful village, overlooking a breathtaking lake teeming with wildlife. We loved waking up to the sounds of birds and spotting turtles swimming by. The tranquility and beauty of the setting offered a truly authentic Sri Lankan experience. The home-cooked meals were simply divine—so delicious and served in generous portions! They also offer a selection of juices. Our room was very clean, and the beds were comfortable too. It is clear that a lot of care goes into maintaining the rooms and making guests feel at home. One highlight of our stay was the Yala Safari with Janaka Safari. This is also a family business and the hosts can help organise. We highly recommend this company.

Clean, smells good, welcome drink, great hosts, perfect location. Nothing like most con hotels in Udawalawe. The owners really care about you and your stay and offer a fair price for the safari. They went the extra mile and even offered me a ride to catch an early bus a few kilometers away. They even texted afterwards to make sure I travelled well.

the room is very nice. Big and clean, good Wi-Fi friendly staff, sometimes too friendly :) if you want to have dinner or lunch, plan it in advance since cooking takes around 1h-1,5h I think it would be good to add eggs for breakfast
